Yule Jam

Photos by Robby Lucke

Mountaineer Millennium pupils depict the Nativity scene as angels (Ashley Teapole, left, and Kim Brewer), Mary (Jordan Joines) and Joseph (Nathan Baucom), as the JAM dulcimer group plays "Away in a Manger."

In the photo at right, two "moles" (Randall Minor [left] and Jesse Triplett) wreak havoc with Christmas presents as part of "Hitch Your Wagon to a Star," JAM (Junior Appalachian Musicians) and Mountaineer Millennium's holiday program presented at Sparta Elementary School's cafetorium last week. The pupils enacted scenes to illustrate the production's musical numbers; the moles' hijinks accompanied the song "I Wish I Was a Mole in the Ground."
